This version of this addon modifies entities in ep1_citadel_00, which means it could potentially conflict with other addons!
I've never seen another addon that modifies this map, but it is possible. If you find that the Vortigaunts in the into of Episode 1 are green, or that some other addon that's supposed to affect this map isn't working, please install the original GameBanana release[gamebanana.com] instead.

Don't you think the Vortigaunts from HL2 & Episode 1's release versions were so much better? Honestly, I don't, but whether I think they're better or not, they're something that I want to see preserved and that I want people to have the option to fully utilize, and that's why I did this port back in 2020.

When Half-Life 2 was updated with Workshop support, this is the first addon I started working on uploading, but... well, the way the workshop works is pretty different from how custom folders do. You see, in the original release, I worked around the fact that EP1 and EP2 have totally different 'vortigaunt_blue.mdl' models by simply having a second VPK to install to EP2's custom folder. On the workshop, however, it's one content folder for all the games. A little bit of a compatibility nightmare. And it wasn't helped by the fact that I have a hard drive going out and I'm using an unfamiliar operating system.

So, anyway, it took about a week, but I managed to get it totally working by replacing the model and texture names in the intro map's entity lump.
